[Bug 419182] Re: KVM and audio driver in Windows 7

[Aaron Roydhouse]

Good news. Looks like newer sound drivers are coming to Qemu in 0.14
(Maverick has 0.12.5, but Natty has 0.14) that work with Windows 7.

----------------------------------------
Sound

    * New Intel HD Audio support (commit), adding three new devices:
          o intel-hda: Intel HD Audio Controller, the PCI device.
          o hda-duplex: HDA Codec. Attaches to the HDA bus. Supports 16bit stereo, rates 16k -> 96k, playback, recording and volume control (with CONFIG_MIXEMU=y).
          o hda-output: HDA Codec without recording support. Subset of the hda-duplex codec. Use this if you don't want your guests access your mic. 
    * Usage: add '-device intel-hda -device hda-duplex' to your command line.
    * Tested guests:
          o Linux works.
          o Win7 works.
          o DOS (mpxplay) works.
          o WinXP doesn't work.
